Beach Front on Secluded Bay...see our video

(Click on our video on the left) My condo, located on the beautiful unspoiled north shore, is just 15 minutes from the airport; although it seems much further, it is by no means your typical Caribbean beachfront condo. The unit is 1,100 sq ft, so there’s plenty of room, and you are 50 feet from the surf! The sound is incredible, especially while lying in bed. This is by far the best unit in the complex because of the location, view, size, and it was just remodeled. The hurricanes hit us hard, and the unit directly below my unit is still boarded up and not occupied. My unit is fully repaired/restored. The exterior pictures listed were taken Jan 2019.
There are 32 units in total, and all but the damaged units are lived in year-round by its inhabitants. You will likely be the only vacationers. All the neighbors know each other and are very friendly. Most will realize you are staying in our place, so don’t be shy asking for directions or a beer. This is not a resort, but absolutely feels like a sanctuary or retreat. There are wild chickens and roosters, as well as the occasional iguana running around. Don’t worry they all get along fine with each other. Well kept but not manicured, nothing feels forced. This is island living. It’s all natural.

The beach, 50 feet from our living room, is usually deserted, as everyone living there in Dorothea is at work. Dorothea Beach is number 13 in Islands this Week. https://virginislandsthisweek.com/st-thomas/st-thomas-beaches/beaches_on_st_thomas/. If you want to hike to another beautiful quiet, deserted beach where there are no buildings or anything but white sand, you can hike to Neltjeberg (pr. nelteeberg). It’s a little less than a half a mile walk on a spectacular forest trail that includes an ocean cliff section directly adjacent to the property. It’s a local’s favorite, deserted most weekdays. If you want something more traditional with two restaurant beach bars Hull Bay is the next beach east of of us. It's about a 5-minute drive from Dorothea. There are 53 other public beaches. Typical this is not.

It’s a small island so everything is close, including the ferries to St John, Tortolla, Virgin Gorda and many others. Day trips are easy and inexpensive. We provide beach towels and coolers for your use.

One more thing, if a Calico cat, or any of the other community cats come by for breakfast, there is food in a bucket for them, and please keep the water fresh. in the foot bath fresh.

Best place ever!!!
I am so in love with this place! Jeff, who owns it and Debbie who manages it are the nicest most helpful people ever! This was exactly as described and having all of the cats and dogs and other various animals around was the most spectacular part. The location is absolutely excellent, the people that live in the area you’re staying is so quiet and so sweet, and so nice all of them! It is the most peaceful place I have ever stayed, and I will return many times. I have a bunch of dogs and cats of my own, but I fell in love with all of the ones that were there, and we fed them, and snuggled with them, and loved on them the whole time! They are so well taken care of and Debra knows every knot And Spot on every animal there! Usually an island I leave sad because I know I’m leaving animals and not the best shape, but that is not the case On St Thomas! The Humane Society is fantastic and a recommended donation while you’re there, but the folks that live at Dorothea Bay Love people and animals and it shows! It is heaven, and I don’t know how else to explain it. But if you love animals, you love, laid-back, and you love a really nice place with the most awesome view, and the most special bay, please stay there! You can’t swim every day, but when you can, it is glorious! Can’t recommend enough. I just want to cry writing this, because I’m not ready to leave!

Live Amongst the Locals!
We had a lovely time at this property for the week we stayed! Our host was very open about the small and private community this rental is at - it’s full of local people with local jobs and families, who were all so kind and helpful and a joy to have around us. The recent hurricanes have done a bit of damage to some of the properties around us, but we were expecting to see that. Our rental was clean and stocked with everything we could have needed - and our host was very responsive when we were in contact about our flight changes. There was not a better view on the whole island than from the porch of this rental! We are adventurers who were not looking for a “resort style” rental and we were very happy with our choice!

Beautiful view with more remote location
To stay here you have to have a rental car. The roads are no joke on St Thomas! We loved staying here in this spacious second floor condo, where you leave the door unlocked all day. Most places were a 15-25 minute drive away. We loved the sound of the waves all night and the starry night sky. It was so nice to have 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, and to make breakfast each morning before heading out. We loved all of the animals on the property and fed the kitties all the time. The beach at these condos isn’t really swimmable, but you can hike to a beautiful secluded beach just over the hill via a path. If you like outdoors and hiking you would love this option. We would come back here again. If you are a high maintenance person, or do not like animals, this might not be your kind of place, but if you like the idea of staying in a peaceful location with super friendly locals and neighbors, away from the hustle and bustle of town, you should give it a try!

Holy cow!
We’ve found our favorite place! The hike to the cliff, the hike to the beaches, just listening to the ocean right there feet from our window every single night. It cannot be beat! The sweet cats and the dogs, who we pretended were family in photo shoots, were the best. The environment jibed with us completely. Well done! PERFECT!

Riddled with cats
There are about 26 cats roaming around the property. They come all up the steps and on to the balcony and won’t leave you alone trying to get into the property. They obviously go in frequently, Do not come here if you have an allergy to cats. The description of the property and local “wildlife” is totally misleading.

St Thomas best location
We had a great family vacation. The house is literally on the beach. We opened the windows and listened to the the waves crashing. Only regret is that we didn't have more time to sit by the ocean and snorkel in the bay.

Live local and love it
Chose this place as we wanted a less resort feel and wanted to experience the island as if we live there. Got what we expected as we drove up things were much less manicured and the buildings themselves (from the outside) showed the wear and tear from past storms. When we got inside, however the view and sound of waves did Not disappoint. inside was nicely appointed with plenty of supplies including beach chairs, etc. Neighbors were very friendly and Debbie was awesome. Several local dogs adopted us along with a very sweet cat. 1/2 mike Hike to Neltjeberg Beach, off the beaten path, worth it ! .. Hike to the point offered spectacular view. Close to more touristy Megan’s bay and a local beach @hull bay. overall a great stay which made us feel as if we too, we locals. Would recommend and stay again

A beautiful spot. Just waves and diving pelicans to watch from the deck. The place was clean, and Debbie was on site and great at solving any issues or offering advice. Might be a bit remote for some, but perfect for us. We'll be back!
